Intermodal tank container

ABSTRACT

An intermodal tank container and complementary chassis, and features and methods for use thereof, are disclosed. The intermodal tank container and chassis has an appearance and length substantially similar to a non-intermodal OTR tank trailer, while affording the same capacity as an intermodal tank container. The design of the tank container allows for an improved, lighter design for the chassis and for improved usability of the tank container in intermodal environments such as with rail cars. The reduced weight of the chassis allows for a greater payload while remaining within various applicable legal restrictions for gross vehicle weight, axle weight, etc.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an intermodal tank container;

FIG. 2 is a top view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a bottom view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a front view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a left view thereof; and,

FIG. 6 is a right view thereof.

The rear view is omitted and forms no part of the ornamental design. 

The ornamental design for an intermodal tank container, as shown and described.
